My best friend lost her 7 week old to SIDS about a year before I got pregnant.

I had to watch her suffer, go through hell and back, and come to terms with what happened. It was heartbreaking. She dealt with depression, drugs, and alcohol. There was only so much I could do. I even stood between her alcohol and her one day and I thought she was going to hit me. I didn't back down because I love her and I saw what she was going through. She didn't hit me but I was so sure it was coming.

With that being said, it was very very very stressful at night time with me when I had our LO. I worried non stop about it and had every monitor I knew of to protect her. I was terrified!

It will be a long hard road for your friend. Be there for her and dont give up on her. Let her deal the way she needs to (within safe measures of course) and remember the value of a hug. I am sorry for your friends loss. :( Hugs to you both!

Upside to this story, my bestie had another daughter who is now almost 3 :) It makes it easier to cope, but she will never fully get over it.

I'm expecting in 4 weeks again and all I can think about is another year of worrying about SIDS. Logan is 16 months and I just stopped worrying about it with her and now I have to start all over again with her brother!

I worried about SIDS too and of course took all the precautions, but SIDS is actually quite rare. In fact, more boys died last year from circumcision complications (117 deaths) than from SIDS (115 deaths). I have a DD so I am not up on the circumcision debate and also not trying to start one. Just pointing out how rare it is.

my baby was stillborn in jan of 2008. ur right... having another baby helps the pain.. but the rawness never goes awayl

always be there for your friend. which im sure u will.its just some days... for me.. i would not want to talk.. but then the next day i would want to talk. so if that makes sense.. never give up on her. i promise she is going to feel real lonely. i remember people visiting me.. and after they left.. like 3 hours later... i would feel lonely.

the pain of empty arms... is undescribable.

good luck. and i will pray for her.

please try not to stress about having a sids baby. which i know is easier said then done... its just the Lords will.. no matter how much u check on the baby... or what kind of mil u give the baby... the Lord will choose if the babe stays or not.

this took me years to learn. but i have finally accepted.

peace

Thank you. I know :( Before all of my friends and people I knew started having babies, I always thought that SIDS was sooo so rare. Then it just seemed like it came in a wave and within a matter of three years there were 4 deaths of either dear friend's babies or acquaintances that I knew from school or work! I was so scared because it didn't seem as rare as I first though it was.

I understand your statistic now. Since SIDS is genderless, I can see how that would make sense.
